Two years ago, roller skating shoes and death flying bicycles were popular on the road as short distance transportation tools. Young people caught up with the age of intelligent transportation tools and purposefully pursued "portability and intelligence". Nowadays, balance cars can be seen everywhere in shopping malls and pedestrian streets. Even driving a single wheel balance car on the road would not be embarrassing.

The No. 9 single wheel balance car (This model is One A1) is a single wheel balance car launched by Numbo in March this year. Its weight and price are lower than those of the two wheel balance car. It also has better flexibility and portability, but it is more difficult to get started. The above is the details of its parameters.

Unpacking& appearance

One A1 The outer packaging of the One A1 is very traditional. The body design is printed on the packaging box. Before opening, you will feel that it is a "small household appliance". There are plastic blocks inside the package to protect the body, so the One A1 does not cause scratches during transportation. At the same time, it can be seen that the One A1 does not give extra tires. However, the motorcycle tires are 14 inch rubber tires commonly used in the unicycle industry, which can be easily bought by bicycle repair shops, There is no difficulty in repairing tyres of One A1.

When taking out its body, it is not as "easy to carry" as expected. The weight of the machine is 10.5kg, which is close to the weight of a dead flying bicycle. It feels good to carry it in a short time, but it is very tired to carry it for a long time. The biggest advantage is that it is small enough to be put at home without occupying land, and it can also be easily carried to the elevator or subway.

The standard accessories include the charger, air nozzle and manual/warranty card. Fortunately, the charger of One A1 is small in size, so it can be stuffed into a small backpack at will to keep the battery life.

The design of One A1 uses black+white panda color matching, the front and rear body shapes are consistent, and the design style is simple and fashionable without publicity. Compared with the shapes of many unicycles on the market, the author still thinks that the design style of No. 9 unicycle balance car will be more consistent with the choice of "urban travel".

For the blank design, if you add stickers to the fuselage, it can not only effectively prevent scratches on the fuselage, but also DIY beautification. Therefore, it is recommended that Nunb officially continue to launch customized stickers for One A1 for users to choose.

Details& characteristic

Once you start the No. 9 unicycle, you can know that its color value is not just "black and white". A total of 28 LED lights are hidden in the black part. By default, when green flashes, it is in the standby stop state. The remaining battery power can also be calculated by the number of lights lit in the green state, without using the APP.

When it is blue, it is a cycling state. The LED atmosphere light will accompany the cycling step, and there will be a "beep beep" when accelerating; Red indicates falling down state, accompanied by alarm tone; In the APP, the color of LED lights in the riding state can be customized. Even the atmosphere light mode can be customized (seven modes are optional). If you don't like the light and atmosphere flickering, you can choose to turn it off.

More lighting effects:

It is also indicated in the manual that it is suitable for people aged 16 to 50, and the weight is limited to 120kg. My feet wear shoes of size 41, and the space on the pedal is just right, so most people are suitable for it. PVC frosted material is added under the pedal of One A1, which can effectively prevent slipping. Even if I only wear socks or slippers, I can ride.

The handle is soft and comfortable. It feels like the "protein skin" material often used in earplugs. This is in contrast to the body material of hard plastic. The design of "combining hard and soft" is very humanistic. The handle can identify the "lifting state". After starting this function, the wheels will automatically stop rotating when the car body is lifted, with a recognition rate of 100%. It can be understood as "portable emergency braking".

The key of One A1 is a "shield" design. The key is not raised and will not cause accidental touch. When pressed, blue light will be displayed. The recognition of startup status is high. After tens of hours of practice, there is still no serious wear.

There is a conspicuous "lightning" at the charging port. The design is consistent with that of the key switch, and the connection is made. Therefore, the cover will not be lost after removal, which is very user-friendly.

The car body is extremely thin and controllable. In addition to being beautiful and convenient, beginners can easily stick to the car body to keep control of the car when learning, but this will lead to a long riding time, and the lower legs will become sore due to too close to the hard plastic of the car body, so they must wear foot protection during learning.

Use a screwdriver on both sides of the pedal to open the interior of the car body, while an empty battery slot is reserved on the right side of the car body, in order to upgrade the battery for players. After upgrading, the maximum speed and endurance will be improved to a certain extent (the improvement parameters are shown in the parameter diagram above), which is suitable for senior players.

Cycling& Riding sensation

As a beginner, I chose the flower bed in my own community. The road is flat and not slippery. Next, I will take a walk for everyone.

8 km/h, balanced and straight

The riding feeling of a single wheel balance car is very different from that of an electric car. It depends on your body to swing how the machine walks. The amount of exercise is no less than walking; The One A1 is sensitive in action recognition. A small step on the forefoot will accelerate, and a slight effort on the heel will slow the brake. The action recognition is accurate.

I have learned to ride One A1 for at least 20 hours, and I have mastered the normal riding of One A1. I had no previous experience of riding a balance bike or roller skates, so I was ready to fall before I started.

(Actual picture of getting off the train)

During the practice, there was no "trip on the street" once. The height of One A1 only needs "one step at a time" to keep it steady, but it is OK to surpass others. But the car experience that it will fall over because of inertia. If you want to learn it well, you should not feel distressed that it will fall out of scratch, or buy a crash belt in advance.

It is undeniable that the No. 9 unicycle One A1 lacks the design of leg guards on both sides compared with the previous model. The advantage is that the blank design is convenient for DIY. The disadvantage is that the novice habitually rides close to the side wall, and the leg side will ache after riding for a long time. Don't stick to the wall to control the car after playing well.

How to learn this product? There is no need to be too tangled. The instruction manual is marked with a learning guide, and there will also be teaching videos to guide novices when connecting to the APP. In order to reduce the risk of riding, the One A1 is forced to limit its speed to 7 km/h during the novice period (the novice period is when the distance of riding is less than 1 km). When riding too fast, the body will appear "red light alarm, rocker", and the mobile phone will appear strong vibration. More safety is also the advantage of this smart product.

The maximum gradient supported by One A1 is 15 degrees, and the climbing capacity has no pressure on the ramps in most cities. When the APP is not opened in the "speed limit mode", the driver will rush to the slope shown in the figure at full speed, and the speed calculated by the software is 17.9km/h.

Being able to recognize "small movements" sensitively, it is more convenient to turn around and "turn the garden". When encountering depressions or speed bumps, one can "lift people away" at any time. This is one of the functional advantages of One A1. This experience can be understood as the flexibility of a bicycle, which can be lifted at any time.

The maximum speed of single electricity is 18km. It can not make people crazy, but it can make people feel free. It is very convenient to buy vegetables when traveling. For short trips, this speed is enough, especially with high sensitivity, and it is easy to master skills.

(Ride on the road)

To reiterate, One A1 forward/backward recognizes pedal pressure, not body center of gravity! The sense of balance is not the most important condition. The first condition for controlling the car is the feeling. Once you get on the car with a sense of lightness, it is not far from learning.

Software& Anti theft

The APP application control is indispensable for riding the No. 9 balance bike. Ninebot APP has conventional battery information and view information. The biggest highlight is intelligent recognition of running status. The APP turns on the camera for real-time transmission and recognition of geographical direction. The APP has no obvious shortcomings from design style to function improvement.

In addition to the control lamp function mentioned above, the "speed limit mode" of APP also has two major intelligent benefits: one is to protect the riding safety of the owner, the other is to reduce the psychological burden of learning the bike; It also has the encryption device function. When the device connects to One A1, it must enter the "unlock password" to connect. These three functions are particularly practical.

As an "electric sports car", anti-theft settings are indispensable, The APP prominently sets a lock on the home page. After opening the lock, it starts the "lock function", and the One A1 can't be driven away. The car body shows red and blue LED lights flashing, alarm sound and strong vibration. The biggest difference from the traditional electric car anti-theft alarm is that the smart phone in the connected state will show strong vibration to remind the machine that it has been touched.

"Mileage calculator" and "speed display chart" are the top priorities for daily use of No. 9 unicycle One A1. Ninebot APP will record the average speed and usage habits of cyclists through these two functions, saving the extra expense of purchasing a mileage recorder.

Gangzhen, the function of Ninebot APP is the most practical one among many "smart car APP" that the author has experienced. APP and One A1 are inseparable. Many conventional controls must use APP, and its functions are real.

epilogue

Ninebot is very "smart", integrating the N pink circle and community functions into the APP, so it can draw many beautiful women's cycling maps every day, and balance bike clubs have been established in various places.

Electric wheelbarrow is a product that can easily get into the relationship with car friends. Because it is not easy to learn, users like to share their learning results, and many outdoor activities are selected, so this circle is very lively.

One A1 is small in size, belongs to the "urban family" of beauty, and has a smart car control. It can not be defeated by a few kilometers of travel. The mediocre car app has inadvertently brought the relationship between car riders closer. In addition, One A1 has successfully crowdfunded. This experience will soon be available.
